    Default EFI LIVE & HPTUNERS compatibility?

    Sorry if this is covered elsewhere....

    Has this compatibility problem with EFI LIVE and HPTUNERS being on the same laptop been resolved:

    There are two solutions to this problem.

    1. Do not install HPTuners software on any PC or laptop that is currently running EFILive software.

    or the preferred solution:

    2. Update the FlashScan USB drivers.

    To update the EFILive FlashScan USB drivers, please follow these instructions:

    Was at at a dyno day at their "HQ" (10 mins from my house) a while ago. A mate said "You should run your ute up and log the run.."

    Rich Z, the issue was resolved a while ago, it only involved a USB driver update from memory.

    Cheers,
    Ross
